Chris: No way! We should go with the most

expensive.

Ben: Why?

Chris: Well, the one with the longest fence has to be

the biggest area, and that means more ticket sales.

Tom: You think?

Chris: Makes sense to me! We should use field A for

Tom: But field C is better value! It saves us over 400

bucks.

Ben: I really don’t think we know which is best yet…

don’t you think we need to work out how many people

each can hold before we decide?

What approach would you take?
